PROF. SAMANI CHAITANYA PRAJNA
I am very glad that the Souvenir edited by Dr. Raksha Shah has been successfully published and it is in the hands of delegates of the International Conference on Science and Jain Philosophy. I have desired that a Souvenir containing views, opinions and thoughts of enlightened scientists, philosophers and spiritualists should be brought out for the benefit of general readers. Looking at the contents of the Souvenir I am feeling very happy that the objective of gathering fresh views has been meticulously achieved. I hope the goal of connecting methodology of science with the practice of spirituality would be adequatelymet by this volume. Ifind the contributors have made sincere efforts to provide deep insight on the topic of their article. The diversity of
contributors from different specialties makes the Souvenir interesting for Experts as well as beginners. I hope the readers will benefit in expanding the horizon of their knowledge after going through the articles contained in this compilation.
I have an ambition that future of society should be appropriately guided and steered based on ethics and morality commonly practiced in Jain traditions and teachings. I would like to record my appreciation to all who have contributed their articles at short notice of invitation and have done justice to their topic by putting time and efforts for benefit of society.
I would like to appreciate particularly the sincere efforts put in by Dr. Raksha Shah and the members of the Editorial Board.
